  As of the end of August this year, about 4.8 million children in the United States had been infected with the new crown virus, accounting for 14.8% of the total confirmed cases in the United States.

This set of data reflects the severity of the epidemic in the United States, and also reflects the high risk of children and other susceptible people living in the United States.

  The cumulative number of confirmed cases and the number of deaths in the United States ranks first in the world, which is no big news.

However, so many children have also suffered unreasonable disasters, which touched the softest part of many netizens' hearts.

The latest report released by the American Academy of Pediatrics shows that in the week ending August 26 alone, 204,000 children in the United States were infected with the new crown virus, accounting for 22.4% of the confirmed cases of new crowns reported in the United States that week.

According to the report, this is the second week in a row that the number of new confirmed cases of children has reached the level when the number of new crown cases in the United States surged last winter.

  The new crown pneumonia epidemic is far from dissipated, especially the endless emergence of various mutant strains, which has even caused external worries.

A WHO official once said that once the Greek letters are used up, new mutant strains may be named after constellations.

The idea of ​​naming constellations does not mean that mutant strains will have idyllic "gentleness", but it reminds us that new mutant strains may be more difficult to predict and more dangerous.

All of these tests the response capabilities of governments, the research and innovation capabilities of health workers, the endurance of the people, and the level of global solidarity in fighting the epidemic.

  Now, most countries are busy researching or vaccinating the new crown vaccine, developing targeted drugs, etc., to build a solid defense wall for people's health and lay the foundation for economic recovery after the epidemic.

As one of the countries with the strongest scientific and technological strength and medical and health strength in the world, the United States should be responsible for the health of its people, including children, and should contribute its strength to the global unity of the fight against the epidemic.

  Things backfired. Some politicians and capital elites in the United States, for all kinds of private interests, disregarded the lives and health of the people, constantly tore up various domestic consensus, played down the risk of the epidemic, and intentionally or unintentionally delayed the anti-epidemic work, and finally reached the point where it is today. .

  What turns the cart before the horse is the political manipulation of the traceability of the new coronavirus in the United States.

From a scientific point of view, traceability work helps people understand the generation and spread of the new coronavirus, cut off the virus transmission chain from the source, and fight the global epidemic prevention and control war.

However, the US virus traceability work first evades its own problems, then presets the target, and then arranges intelligence agencies to selectively carry out traceability work.

Such a "targeted", on the contrary, is full of doubts.

As you can imagine, the results of the reports produced by the intelligence agencies are exactly the same as the results previously speculated by the vast majority of the people.

The only difference is that huge amounts of funds have been spent, and the precious time of uniting against the epidemic has been wasted.

  In any country, children are the future and represent endless hope.

The lives and health of American children are equally precious and worthy of all American politicians and capitalists.

At this moment, relevant parties in the United States should adopt a scientific attitude of "seeking truth from facts", face the problem directly, and muster the courage to solve the problem.

It must be understood that arrogant postures such as "self-righteousness" and "pointing at will" will never solve the epidemic problem.

  If the United States is still reluctant to step into the door of global cooperation in the fight against the epidemic, the small abacus in the hearts of US politicians and capitalists will also be destined to fail.

Don't let the "cicada wings be the most important thing, and the important thing is the light" thing over and over again, leaving only scenes of tragedies.
